	December 30, 2022 at 5:58 PM	Approved	MMS Review Nights Spring 2023	SOMA	12/30/2022	01/28/2023	Each spring the SOMA students have lead review sessions to help guide students on study strategies. These sessions are requested by the MMS students. As MMS students work through Spring semester, SOMA students who are OMS1s/OMS2s will host a short, virtual review of the material and high yield topics. SOMA students will coordinate review content with the faculty teaching the subject (i.e. Anatomy and Dr. Kulesza). This virtual review will allow MMS students to focus their studies over the weekend for their tests on the following Mondays. These reviews will be virtual and held through through zoom. MMS students will be alerted through email and their Facebook group. This event will be completely virtual, and will follow all social distancing because of the virtual nature of the event, with no in-person assembly required.
	December 20, 2022 at 12:48 PM	Expired	UWorld Class Discount	Class of 2025	12/20/2022	01/01/2022	The Class of 2025 and SGA are hoping to offer our students the 180-Day Full USMLE Step 1 Qback Access + COMLEX OMT 1 Supplement at a discounted institutional rate. In addition, we hope to apply the Class of 2025's available budget of $5,000 alongside a supplemental $2,000 from SGA for a total of $7,000 towards the group discount purchase. To receive the institutional discount, SGA will gather funds from the students directly and complete a purchase order. This will be done via PNC's Zelle deposits directly to the SGA account or check. Details of UWorld's PO requirements and banking information are attached. UWorld Contact: Megan Chaney mchaney@uworld.com COM1 180-days Retail: $459 Discount: $50 Institutional rate: $409 Current student sign-up list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1f0SXTrIyR7QR2rpmaC3D44rp_miSD06wrbu1rfdtFYw/edit?usp=sharing With our current sign-up of 142 people, we will make a maximum of 150 code slots available. Each student will be asked to pay a rate of $362 [(409*150) - 7000) / 150]. Once funds are gathered, SGA will purchase the exact number of codes that have been paid for. If all the slots are not taken, some of the SGA funds will be unused since students are already paying a higher rate. This process will avoid overdrafting our funds. I thank the administration for their generosity in helping our students attain studying resources that are almost essential for board studying.

We have included the information he requested prior to resubmission. Proposed dates: Monday December 5th through Friday December 9th Idea: SOMA will be putting together a Christmas Card Drive. Cards will be made by students to bring joy to residents, so these cards will include writing from students. Students will make or fill out cards to be distributed to SLC Residents.

As has been done in other clubs, service hours will be provided with 3 cards = 1 hour of service.

Why: SOMA wants to create a COVID-safe opportunity for students to get involved in the Erie community. Having this card drive creates an event that allows LECOM students to reach out and be involved with the school and community. As this event has been very successful in the past, and Dr. Silvia Ferretti commented on what a nice event it was last year when we had the cards at Colleen’s desk, we really would like the opportunity to have it again.

Additionally, I will ensure that a first aid kit is available in case any needle poke injuries occur. Dr. Falk is looking into getting pig's feet for the event but this is not finalized yet, so we will be planning on using the suturing pads.

	November 4, 2022 at 12:47 PM	Expired	YogaErie Classes to Raise Money For Lydia's Love Moments	Womens Health Club	11/04/2022	12/03/2022	In conjunction with our previous event request, YogaErie has kindly agreed to donate 2 classes towards raising money for our Lydia's Love Moments fundraiser! WHO: YogaErie Instructors and LECOM students WHAT: A 60 minute yoga class; $10/ student. All funds will go to Lydia's Love Moments to raise money for children at Ronald McDonald's House. WHERE: LECOM Wellness Center Gymnasium. All yogies will be positioned 6 feet apart and be instructed to bring their own mat or towel. All students will check in and sign a liability waiver if not a member already prior to class beginning, wearing a mask. Once on the mat and ready to start class 6 feet apart, they will be allowed to remove their mask for the duration of the workout. Once class is over, masks will be put back on promptly. WHEN: Saturday, December 3 at 9:30-10:30am WHY: As DO medical students, we know how important it is to exercise and keep our hearts healthy. While raising money for children in need of healthcare, we thought this would be a great way to get actively involved in our fundraiser while also benefitting our student body. Yoga Erie has graciously offered us a class and we feel it would form a great relationship between YogaErie and LECOM while helping support a beautiful cause. We feel that hosting an event at our own location would be easy and convenient for LECOM students, and a great way to utilize our facilities. If there is an issue with hosting at lecom wellness center, we will look into having the event at YogaErie's studio. Thank you!

This is a nonprofit organization founded by Kim Ghirardi that raises money for The RonaldMcDonald House in Pittsburgh, PA and Emily Rose Photography.

	October 25, 2022 at 12:29 PM	Expired	Erie Oncology Wellness Center - Wig & Beauty Salon Item Drive	Oncology Club	10/25/2022	11/07/2022	The Erie Oncology Wellness Center is an independent non-profit devoted to helping patients undergoing radiation and/or chemotherapy. One aspect of their care is a Wig & Beauty Salon. They have plenty of wonderful wigs, but lack in the 'beauty' side of make-up and skin care patients. We are planning on gathering supplies to help these oncology patients dealing with hair and skin problems. As for the products gathered, I have this baseline from the clinic: "It seems that the makeup line that would be best is NYX. They are vegan-free and priced fair compared to some of the other brands. For lotions and such, Neutrogena is recommended. Both brands are sold at Ulta. The products we would like to have on hand are face soap/cleaners, face lotion, foundation, powder, blush, eye shadows, eye liners, brow pencils or temp tattoos, lip balms/sticks. Because we have women of all colors, a variety would be great. We don’t expect you to get everything, but any donation of these products would be most helpful as we stock the ‘beauty’ portion of our Wig & Beauty Salon. We are most appreciative of your willingness to help. We would be happy to provide a tax receipt to you if you give us a value on what you’ve donated since we are a non-profit." The drive would run from November 7th to November 14th. Every item donated will count as 0.5 hours for a maximum of 3 hours (as per previous events).
